HIS MOTHER FOR TWO WEEKS.
a Confederate Colonel Spells Frank
MOrey,s Romance.

A Cincinnati special of March 18th
says Frank Morey, of Coal City, KY,
has had an unusual experience. For
years he has been searching for his
parents, of whom he had no recollec-
ton, and two weeks ago Mrs. Harriet
Williams, of this city, declared that he
was her son, and the pair rejoiced.
Thursday, however, Colonel A. j. Mo
rev, newspaper-man Of Cynthiana,
Ky, came to this city, and, in company
with the World correspondent, went to
Coal City to investigate the matter.
The result is that Mrs. Williams loses
her new-found son and young Morey
loses mother and gains father, or,
at least, father by adoption.
In 1853, when very young, the boy
was given to Colonel Morey by a
woman from New Orleans, who said
that the parents of the child were Mr.
and Mrs. Pierce, originally from New
York, who died at New Orleans from
yellow-fever. Morey named the boy
Frank. In 1861 his adopted father,
then in the Confederate army, was cap
tured and confined at Camp Chase for
long time. His wife died, and the
boy was placed by strangers in the
House of Refuge at Cincinnati, where
he stayed some years, and in time
drilted into Kentucky and lost recol-
lection of his early home and his
adopted parents.

The Raging Missouri.

BISMARCK, March 22.-The Missouri
fell about twelve inches last night, and
this morning stood at the highwater
mark of 1891. The railrOad-men and
detained passengers were thinking that
they would have quick relief, when the
water began TO rise again, and has
risen foot since The rise at
this point over body of water
six miles III width is marvellous. A
train from the East was delayed twenty
minutes this afternoon by rise in APP
pie creek, three miles east. If the
water in this creek rises much more it
viii be impossible for trains to come to
Bismarck. There is no longer any
doubt of the drowning of the jackson
family at Painted Woods-father,
mother, and two children.

1t was decided to recognize the long
and short haul absolutely, with the ex-
ception that when lower rates were re-
quired to be made on account OF water
competition such rates should be met,
but there should be no commercial or
railroad competition.
Under this view the new tariffs will
be formulated to take effect the lSt
proximo.
The eastern division, having no water
competition, will conform TO the con
struction of the trunk lines and the
adoption of the new official classified
ton, while the western division will
meet the competition of the Mississippi
river, along which it runs.

BuffaIo's Fatal Fire.


BUFFALO, March pa large force
of men were kept busily at work oil the
forenoon pulling down the most danger
Gus portions of the Richmond Hotel
walls. No effort was made to find the
bodies supposed TO be still in the dsbris,
as it is not safe for the men to work
near the crumbling walls. As soon as
the walls can be razed, however, the
work will be resumed.
The streets continue to be crowded
with people and the rain continues un-
abated. Even rain and snow has had
no effect on the crowd. With one OF
two exceptions, the injured persons at
the hospitals are reported as doing well.
Mary Nolan, who is at the Sisters Hos
pital, is not expected to live through
the day. Maggie Mulrick is also verg
low. All the patients at the General
Hospital will, it is thought, recover.
Clinton Bidwell still improves, and
there are no fears that his injuries viii
be fatal.
Mrs. W. J. Mann, wife of one OF the
proprietors of the Richmond, and
mother of little Jennie, who died on
Sunday, is still lying in q precariou.
condition. II was feared that she could
not last through the night, but this
morning she was still alive and there
was some hope for her recovery. Mr.
Mann's condition is also more seriou;
than il has been.

who was injured in the fire, died at the
hospital last night at 1890 o'clock

Rtehm ond Theatre.

On Friday night Fred. Warde opens
an engagement of three performances
at the Theatre with very attractive re-
pertOire. 1t is needless to say any
thing in praise OF so deserving Rich
mond favorite as Warde, and the mere
recital of the plays he presents on this
his second visit this season is enough to
insure for him crowded houses.
Friday night he gives Galba the
Gladiator. The beautiful play has
been, it is claimed, much embellished
since its production on former occA-
sion, making the mise-en scene doubly
attractive.
Saturday matinee Mr.. Warde and
Miss Eugenis Blair appear in two COM
edies-" Delicate Ground" and Shak-
speare's "Taming OF the Shrew." This
performance will be great treat,
showing to such advantage the versa
tihty of talent possessed by both these
artists.
On Saturday night the fayorite play,

it is needless to speak, SO efficiently
was it presented on the former occa-
sion.

THE pREsrDExT.s HEALTH.
mr.. Zowcrs's Pears Not shared by

[By telegraph TO tho Dispatch.

(By telegraph 10 tho Dispatch
WASHINGTON, ID. c., March %.
Colonel Lamont, in conversation to-day
in regard TO the Presidents health,
showed that the fears expressed by DR..
Towers are not shared by the Presi-
dents family and his intimate friends.
The President, Colonel Lamont said,
was to all Appearances in perfect health.
He did not think DIR. Towers was in
position to Judge Of the matter,
as he did not know the President, and
what he said was, in the Colonel's
opinion, based merely on the assumption
that the President was gaming flesh
and took no exercise. This was not
the case. As matter of fact, he
continued, the President weighs less
than when he first came TO Washing
ton and really takes rs much exercise
as most other men. 1t is true that he
does not walk about the city, but he
frequently walks in the country, and
there are other ways in which he gets
exercise. The Colonel added that alto
eether the President is in good condi-
ton and that there is no reason for ap-
prehension in regard to his health.
